Case Study: STRATO AG achieves scalable VPS hosting and higher performance with Virtuozzo Hybrid Server

Virtuozzo Enables STRATO AG as Hosting Industry Leader

STRATO AG, a major German web hosting provider, was initially limited to offering only dedicated servers. To stay competitive and diversify its services, the company needed a robust and scalable Virtual Private Server (VPS) solution that offered its customers flexibility, high performance, and an attractive price-to-performance ratio, all while being hosted in German data centers.

To meet this challenge, STRATO implemented Virtuozzo Hybrid Server. This solution utilized Virtuozzo's container technology to power STRATO's new V-Server offering, enabling near-instant provisioning and on-the-fly resource modifications for customers. The results included a significantly improved total cost of ownership, the ability to double performance and density per physical host, and enhanced scalability. The majority of STRATO's 70,000 servers now run on the Virtuozzo platform, providing customers with benefits like live kernel patching to reduce downtime.
